Operation

Siren/Horn triggering conditions

The siren/horn sounds intermittently and the hazard warning lights flash for about 30 seconds when the system is triggered by any one of the following:


   * Unlocking a door with an inside door-lock knob.

   * Forcing open a door, the bonnet or the liftgate/boot lid.

   * Opening the bonnet by operating the bonnet release handle.

   * Switching the ignition ON without using the push button start.

   * (With the intrusion sensor)  The intrusion sensor detects a movement in the vehicle.


The system will be triggered again (up to 10 times) if one of the above conditions remains.


        * (With the intrusion sensor)

Disconnecting the battery terminal (the hazard warning lights do not flash).

The system will be triggered about 10 times.


NOTE

* The liftgate/boot lid does not open while the theft-deterrent system is operating.

* If the battery goes dead while the theft-deterrent system is armed, the siren will activate and the hazard warning lights will flash

   when the battery is charged or replaced.


          How to Arm the System

1. Close the windows securely.


NOTE

          (With the intrusion sensor)

Even with a window open, the system can be armed, however, leaving the windows even partially open can invite theft, and wind blowing into the vehicle could trigger the alarm.


The intrusion sensor function can also be cancelled.

Refer to Cancelling the Intrusion Sensor (With Intrusion Sensor) on page 3-37.


2. Switch the ignition OFF.

3. Make sure the bonnet, the doors, and the liftgate/boot lid are closed.

4. Press the lock button on the transmitter or lock the driver's door from the outside with the auxiliary key.

   The hazard warning lights will flash once.


          (With the advanced keyless function)

Press a request switch.

The security indicator light in the instrument panel flashes twice per second for 20 seconds.


5. After 20 seconds, the system is fully armed.
